I say this from my experience. Our ship an LHD forward deployed in Japan is in Port for 3 months out at 3 months ish. ADs do maintenence on their "gear" (engine stands, bridge crane, ect) if you're not doing work as an AD you will be helping the ships maintenance (3M)

I'm not speaking for all ADs but the ones here really don't do AD stuff as the Marines are the ones really working on the aircraft engines when they are aboard.
